We stumbled upon Valentina D'andrea's beautiful, artisanal, hand-crafted wares through a dear Tuscan friend of ours, Judy Witts Francini. From beach towels to totes, Valentina's use of bright colors and whimsical designs are sure to dazzle.

In 1999, scenographer and illustrator Valentina D'Andrea invented "Officina di Fantadesign" a space that deals with art, fashion, design, putting more materials in dialogue within the same function.

Creativity, research, experimentation, craftsmanship, Italian spirit, are its hallmarks. She works on products and projects investing in imagination ... Bright colors, dense and deep brush strokes, exquisitely graphic signs are the elements that characterize the style of her work.
